Why do they not also remove:

Once you start the purges, they only end in bloodshed. God help us all.

So what's next? Start tearing down memorials to our troops from just after the Civil War to today because it honors war? Tear down the Vietnam Wall memorial? All WW1&2 memorials?

They came for the Confederate monuments and I said nothing.

I noticed that the last people whose names were added to the CUNY Hall of Great Americans were inducted in 1976. That sounds about right. History basically ended in that sh!t-hole more than 40 years ago.

New York has lost more than 30% of its House seats in Congress since 1976, and that trend ain't changing anytime soon.

@ssholes like Andrew Cuomo are a major symptom of that state's problems.

Amen, Brother. They are GUTLESS in a one-on-one fight. They have to go in mobs or behind the cover of darkness to do their dastardly deeds.
LIBs are the enemy of America....always have been.

Evidently, at some point in the past, even New York considered Lee and Jackson to be great Americans.

“...The Left smell blood in the water, and they are in a frenzy....”

They’re gutless. All they can do is go into a ruthless mob and beat up on a bunch of old statues...lol. When they do try to beat up on real Americans, they have to have about 4-5 of em to do it. One on one they’re nothing but a bunch of little chickenshits.

A lot of politicians with just a little bit of backbone will have to get elected in the South before any Yankees statues are removed. As it stands now, most are for removing Confederate statues.

I think this started back when Governor W. Bush gave Santa Ana’s sword back to Mexico. I think the good he prays to, Allah, told him to do it. What a fraud.

It’s amazing to me how quickly this monument issue gained so much momentum. It’s like a prairie fire.

Why YOU of course. Anyone who objects to the "progressive" agenda is now and forever more a "Nazi," a "Klansman," and must be eliminated with violence if necessary. And that means YOU.

It wasn't all evil though. The founding of a great nation. Most don't realize that at one point in American history, there were more white/Anlgo slaves than black.

Furthermore, it was powerful tribes in Africa that sold their own countrymen into slavery. In America, one of the most notorious slave owners was a black feller. Brutal guy. His name was Anthony Johnson. William Ellison was another along with his relatives.

Abe Lincoln bantered about the idea while in the Senate of colonizing blacks back to Africa/Caribbean, feeling they'd have a difficult time assimilating into the American society.

Indians held slaves as well. Raiding parties would kill the men and take the babies/woman as slaves.

A myth that many parrot...the Civil War was over slavery. False! There was indeed an issue with slavery, but not the primary reason for the war. Another myth. Slave owners were brutal toward blacks. Yes, there was horrible brutality, but there were many slave owners that were good, decent folks in need of the labor to operate agriculture industries.

In fact, after the war, many blacks did not want to leave their homes on the plantations. This is where they worked, raised their families, taught the children. There also were blacks who fought freely for the South.

Revisionism has perverted many a fact in America.
